His hands became empty in an instant, and Xu Chengfeng turned to look at Zuo Yue.

But Zuo Yue just stopped the taxi with an expressionless face. He didn't even intend to say goodbye and went straight forward to get into the taxi.

Xu Chengfeng glanced at her twice, then reached out and grabbed her wrist again, forcing her back from the car.

Zuo Yue staggered and almost ran into his arms. She was so shocked that she struggled to shake him off, while raising her hands and looking at him with a cold face: What are you doing? Let go!

Don't you know me? Xu Chengfeng's men didn't seem to use much force, but they had the power to make it impossible for her to break free. He just looked at her so calmly, but his voice was so clear that it had a different kind of strength.

Zuo Yue smiled immediately, but he suppressed his smile just for a moment, and had no intention of getting into trouble with him: I don't know him!

Because of her cold and straightforward answer, Xu Chengfeng's Qingjun eyebrows knitted slightly, but he still held her wrist firmly: Think about it again, you don't know me?

Should we get to know each other? Zuo Yue scolded him coldly, and shook his hand hard: Let go! This is in front of our company. You are not afraid of bad influence, but I am afraid of damaging myself. Reputation! Take your hands away!

Xu Chengfeng looked down at her with an attitude of rejecting others, held her wrist without letting go, and said calmly: You haven't eaten after get off work? Do you want to go eat together?

Zuo Yue immediately raised his eyes and glared at him, with a bit of cold sarcasm in his eyes: I just rejected someone else's invitation. Where did you get the confidence to think that I would agree to go to dinner with you now? Who are you? Human? Do I know you? Why should I eat with you? You are not afraid of nausea, but I am afraid of indigestion! Let me go!

Xu Chengfeng chuckled: I haven't seen you for more than three years. I have grown up, matured, and become more and more sharp-tongued.

Zuo Yue suddenly saw that there seemed to be a general manager in front of the company. She was just an intern now and really didn't want to cause any attention-grabbing things near the company. She couldn't push Xu Chengfeng, so she could only try to push him away. She freed her hand from his palm and said impatiently: Can you please respect yourself? Don't embarrass me here! You helped me out of the situation just now, but I didn't ask you to come and help me! Now! Don’t force me to eat with you to say thank you just because of something like this! We are already strangers, let’s separate and let’s not get entangled anymore! I have already taken my place, so please, sir, please take your hands away!”

It's just a meal, are you thinking too much? Xu Chengfeng suddenly chuckled, with a bit of warmth in his voice, as if he was not the same person at all as the cruel and decisive man who left three years ago.

Zuo Yue took advantage of him to relax slightly and pulled his hand out, took two steps back and said with an ugly face: I'm not hungry! I'm not interested either!

After saying that, she stopped the taxi again. This time she quickly opened the door and got into the car. She no longer gave him a chance to come forward and pull her away. After closing the door, she told the driver the address where she wanted to go, and directly The windows are closed.

Xu Chengfeng didn't stop her anymore, he just stood on the side of the road, looking silently at the direction Zuo Yue left in the car, and saw the car gradually speeding up until it disappeared from his sight.

BOSS. Aite came over after settling the matters that needed to be discussed with the KIng Group.

Xu Chengfeng heard it, but seemed not to hear it. He still stood on the roadside, watching the car leave with calm eyes.

Aite also looked in that direction, and could no longer see Zuo Yue and the taxi. Aite suddenly raised his hand to his mouth and cleared his throat, pretending to cough: I didn't expect Miss Zuo to actually It was such a coincidence that she came to the King Group for an internship. When I saw her outside the conference room today, I was also surprised. But what I didn't expect was that more than three years would actually transform the willful and perverse little girl. She has become an increasingly feminine girl like she is now.

Xu Chengfeng didn't say anything. The sky was getting dark and the lights in Boston were beginning to turn on. Aite had been standing behind him, without urging, just waiting patiently.

He didn't know how long he stood like this. Xu Chengfeng slowly raised his hand and looked at the palm that had just held Zuo Yue's hand. He slowly closed it and squeezed it gently, but there was no trace of the remaining warmth belonging to that young girl.

*****

The taxi stopped for a moment downstairs in the apartment. Zuo Yue got out of the car and walked into the apartment. As he walked, he was afraid that the manager Lin from before or someone else would follow him. He turned around frequently to pay attention to the surroundings behind him. After making sure it was safe, he entered the elevator directly.

After entering the house, she suddenly felt weak. She leaned against the door as if she had completely let herself go. The bag in her hand fell to the ground, and her body gradually slid down along the door until she finally fell to the ground.

The room was dark, not even the lights were turned on, only the moonlight from the window shone in.

The man's voice kept echoing in his ears.

you do not know me?

The man's eyes, the man's movements and expressions, and the temperature of the man's palms.

Zuo Yue slowly raised her hand and looked at her wrist, then closed her eyes and leaned her head back against the door.

Didn't he say that he would never appear in front of her again? Aren’t you going to never set foot in the United States again in your life?

Since she left far away and completely, why did she show up at the company where she just went to intern three years later?

Even if we meet by chance, shouldn't we treat each other as strangers?

Why did he come over suddenly to hold me back? Why did he ask her in that tone?

After sitting quietly like this for who knows how long, Zuo Yue slowly stood up and climbed up the door, turned on the light, turned around and walked to the wine cabinet, took out a cup and half a bottle of red wine, poured half a cup of wine and put it to her mouth. He paused again and didn't drink.

Every time she suffered from insomnia in the past three years, she relied on drinking some wine to numb herself. Now that people have appeared in front of her, and they are no longer just in the memories she hates, does she still need to drink to numb herself?

After all, they can only be strangers. Taking one more step will only lead to disaster for her.

Zuo Yue thought for a while, and finally just turned around and poured the wine into the toilet, watching the wine being flushed away. Then he turned around and put the cup aside, picked up the bag on the ground and took out his mobile phone and a few things he brought back from the company. Useful information files.

There are two text messages on the phone, one is a spam text message and the other is from Manager Lin.

[Zuo Yue, I just learned that that man is the president of KR Group who came to the company today to inspect cooperation. Do you know him? 】
